How to write a CV
A
CV (curriculum vitae) is like a passport. We may look a bit stupid on them but they are very important if we want to be hired for a job.
Basic rules
The best CVs not only tell a story, but also tell it quickly, clearly and simply.
Length of CV
A good CV will never be more than a couple of pages of A4.
Mistakes
Check, check and recheck every single word and every punctuation mark. Then check them again.
Working experience
State your working experience in choronological order.
Work experience
Show the most recent and most relevant work first.
Personal information
Write down you full name, your address, your birth date, your education, the languages you speak and your hobbies.
And finally...
Once you've written your CV, leave it for ten minutes and then go back and reread it. Show it to your friends and listen to what they say.
Above all, spend time on it !
